The DMRF is pleased to return to in-person events in select cities to re-unite the dystonia community, promote awareness, and support the mission to find a cure. We’re especially excited to announce this year’s Dystonia Zoo Day season, with both in-person events and virtual opportunities to participate.

A Virtual Kick-Off Celebration on August 18, 2022 will mark the beginning of in-person Dystonia Zoo Days in eight US cities after a two year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The 3rd Virtual Dystonia Zoo Day & Closing Ceremonies on October 8, 2022 will close out the season.

Registration is open! Paid registrations for any in-person Dystonia Zoo Day ($25 adults/$15 children) includes zoo admission, refreshments, and event t-shirt.

Sign up for the virtual events is free and you can support Virtual Dystonia Zoo Day by purchasing a shirt, starting a team, or making a donation.
